Protopica: Sin Agua, No Hay Tiempo ("without water, there is no time"), now live at SUBMERGE: Beyond the Render @artechouse.
No studio, no shared space. Just @ManuVision in Montreal, @willselviz in Toronto, and @rendernetwork providing distributed GPU power for the 18K render.
did you know compute is becoming the scarcest resource on the planet?
$RENDER is already up 44% from its recent bottom & the countdown is just getting started:
> 73.2M cumulative frames rendered
> 60K GPUs added in April 2026
> AI workloads now 35-40% of all job volume
> token burns up 25.82% MoM in April 2026 & 36.85% YoY vs. April 2025
more centralized solutions are showing some warning signs:
> SK Hynix & Micron have their entire 2026 HBM output sold out
> on-demand H100s on major cloud platforms are now "genuinely unreliable" leading to unavailability, throttling issues or 2-3x costs in on-demand pricing
> Anthropic just signed a compute deal with SpaceX/xAI because centralized cloud can't keep up
> Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia: AI compute requirements increasing "by an order of magnitude every single year"
> AI compute capacity doubling every 7 months
this a preview of what happens when AI truly scales
decentralized compute is shaping up to capture a system that's maxing out capacity
& @rendernetwork is perfectly positioned for the overflow 🔥
From graphic designer to illustrator to 3D, @wes_cream has worked with @Microsoft, @Google, and others. Also, the man behind the #RenderCon2026 visuals.

Custom tools built with AI. Steven Scott walks through how he's quietly rewriting his own workflow in @Blender.
"It's not about the AI doing the final renders. It's about AI speeding up your workflow." [23:58]
Watch from 18:36 to see how Steven built three custom Blender tools with AI assistance and rendered the result on @rendernetwork.
